Sponsored by:  The Lawrence Township School Foundation

Purpose:  To reward a teacher (or teachers) for an innovative idea that, if implemented, 通过效率有意义地影响MSDLT组织, effectiveness, and/or measurable improvements.

Eligibility:  Any MSDLT non-administrative, 在提交材料时被劳伦斯镇MSD作为认证人员雇用的认证人员*. 想法和提交必须由认证的工作人员提出. 认证的员工不能为未认证的或行政员工提交想法. 

*继续受雇至少24个月(如获发$20,000，或该款项必须退还). See Excellence Design Challenge Agreement for specifics.

How it works: 
  1. 经认证的工作人员可填写“规划申请”，以表明对设计挑战的兴趣，并提供有关想法的摘要. This will be an electronic submission.
  2. MSDLT卓越设计挑战团队(MEDCT)将审查规划应用程序，并确定哪些应用程序满足进入“研究和开发”(R和D)阶段的要求，以完成“完整应用程序”。. The applicants who move to the R and D phase, who will be called “finalists”, 将通过电子邮件通知有关完整申请的更多信息.
  3. 最终入围者需要在合同日之外完成他们的提案的研发阶段. 在这一阶段进行到一半时，委员会将收到一份进展报告. 申请人必须在截止日期前提交完整的申请材料，以便递交研究及发展阶段的奖项. 申请人并不是在研发阶段实施想法，而是在制定实施想法的行动计划.
  4. 完整的申请将由MEDCT成员审查，并确定获奖者(或获奖者). Dr. Smith will be the final vote in the process. 最终入围者和优胜者将在为认证员工举办的年终庆典上公布. 如监督认为任何申请不符合冠军资格, the district reserves the right to not make a monetary award.
Requirements:
  • 这个想法必须是个人或学区所独有的. 它不能是预先打包的程序或受版权保护的程序的实现. It cannot be a curriculum or published resource. It cannot be a purchased software or web based product.
  • 这个想法必须影响整个MSDLT系统的很大一部分(等级跨度，如初级或大的划分，如运输). 对于单一学校或课堂的想法将不被接受.
  • 申请可由多于一名持证雇员提交, 但在规划申请程序开始时，必须确定所有涉及的因素. Monetary awards are shared by the number of applicants.
  • Only one application should be submitted per idea.

  • The MSD of Lawrence Township, at the central office, 是否有几个部门的领导和团队致力于提高他们所在领域的效率和效率. 如果申请人提出的想法已经被某部门考虑和审查, it will not move to the R and D phase of the Design Challenge.
